Ingredients

8 large lemons

3/4 cup sugar

5/8 cup sugar

1 cup water

1.5 cups water

drop orange blossom water

1T Turkish apple tea, optional

6-8 pieces pistachio nougat, to serve optional

Directions

Wash lemons and cut them into quarters. Place in a large ceramic bowl with 3/4cup sugar and crush lemons to release their juice and thoroughly blend in the sugar. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Make sugar syrup by combining 5/8cup sugar with water and bringing to the boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Allow this to cool.

Pour the now cooled sugar syrup and additional water over lemons and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours (don't cut this short).

Strain juice from lemons and discard lemons. Add orange water and apple tea to the lemon juice and freeze in an icecream machine according to the manufacturer’s directions.

When ready to serve, pile up the sorbet into tea cups. Serve with a slice of nougat.

WOW. This sounds *good*. One problem though, I need an ice cream machine. Would anyone care to recommend a decent model?
